UPDATE: After writing the report below, the Montreal police claimed that Engler was victimizing the police by writing the report below. Engler wrote this update before being taken into custody. Engler says that a new investigator has told him that the Montreal police will be charging me with intimidation, harassment,…
That may be, but it still doesn’t explain how the cops can charge him with intimidation of cops. Charges like that should only come from a prosecutor.
I agree that there may be a case of cops going beyond the law. I only looked into this since the Canada feed has about 4+ articles talking about this guy with very little details. A 2 second search shows he’s basically a Russian agent.
Well if he is a Russian agent, he should be charged if he did any crimes. But this ain’t what this is about
Sure, I agree. Lemmy.ca has been spammed with articles about this activist though that don’t mention that he’s pro-Russia/Anti-Ukraine. Just thought I’d add some context.
And that is greatly appreciated since it germane to the discussion.
Dude the deserves to be fucked but he needs to be fucked for the right crimes
Then cops can recommend charges be laid by the feds.
In no way, shape or form do the cops have any right to charge him with anything at this point.
